Russian tender. Decent size, numbers sure look good.

Nice comments about him... very lanky ... 6'2'' but only 163lb

[Deif]

Hard not to like it in round 6.

 

[Jetabre]

Seems like a decent pick.

 

[Tasteless Beaver]

Can't complain. Helle was a late rounder, Berdin is promising. Give him a few years in the KHL, bring him over and see what he's got.

 

[Mortimer Snerd]

First pick I've liked since Laine.

 

[CaptainChef]

knew that they would grab a goalie soon. At 6'1 he's maybe a tad undersized for todays goalies, but like the pick

 

[MardyBum]

Pronman had him top 5 for goalies? Fan of the pick then. Good numbers too.

Stanley ya, but nothing wrong with some of the other D-men - like Green especially

 

[surixon]

Excellent value pick.

 

[Sweech]

This is the type of late round pick I like seeing. Highly rated Euro who fell inexplicably.

 

[garret9]

Fell due to Russian scandal.

Stylistically the polar opposite of Hellebuyck: reflexive and flashy.

Good goalie.

 

[mazmin]

Huge value that late in the draft. Impossible not to like it.

It's nice to now have a set of decent goalies with staggered birth years:

Hutch '90
Helly '93
Comrie '95
Berdin '98

Jets 1.0 or 2.0 never had significant depth in this position before. I don't agree with every move Chevy makes but we need to admit we have a well rounded prospect pool.

Go Jets Go!

Good goalie.

How does his style compare to Comrie?

Welcome to Winnipeg!

 

[ComplexChris]

I really like this pick.

 

[rehf]

Can't complain about this pick.

 

[PhilJets]

First pick
Was Finish gunner

Last pick was the new Berdin Wall

Most pick after the first round are long shots.

Welcome to the Jets

So what you're saying is all we need is someone who can score 5 goals in a game who's last name begins with a Z?

I loved this pick.....but now you got me thinking Pavs 2.0

That sounds about right , a guy that is top 4 in league scoring.



I was going to say a 50 goal scorer also but the Flames took him already.

Maybe a trade with them as they need an Elite Goalie.

Seems like a nice pick. Never know what one of these guys will turn into.

Lot more raw. Very athletic. Flashy is a common term used to him.

Heh. Well, to be fair, there are athletic goalies that do better than Pavelec... and those that do worse.
